The spikes show what the grid needs - not the maximum capacity of the battery installation. And it shows your post about 8MW was baseless.

How is that a problem?

The grid operators love it. It fixes the problem they were having with their conventional generation. And as we transition to renewable energy, batteries will be an important part of the solution.
